A warning bell… criticism of Mbappe’s behavior after the defeat against Germany

France – The captain of the French national team, Kylian Mbappe, faced criticism after his country’s defeat at home to its French counterpart (0-2) in the friendly international football match that brought them together last Saturday.

The French newspaper “L’Equipe” reported on Monday that Mbappe and his colleague Aurelien Chouamini were absent leaders in the locker room, after the loss to Germany.

The newspaper added that Mbappe, the Paris Saint-Germain striker, did not talk to his teammates about the reasons for the loss, and gave the impression that he was focusing on his problems, more than the problems of the French national team.

She considered that the loss to Germany showed a number of deficiencies in the Roosters’ ranks, such as a weak mental state and the incompetence of the substitute players that coach Didier Deschamps included.

The newspaper asked: “Three months before the Euro 2024 tournament, is the loss to Germany just a stumble or an alarm bell? Does this defeat cause concern?

She pointed out that doubts are always raised about the French team, before major tournaments, as happened before the last World Cup finals in Qatar in 2022.

L’Equipe newspaper concluded its report by saying that the French team lacked good performance and personality on the field against Germany, which cannot be justified by the absence of Antoine Griezmann, the Atletico Madrid player.
